Read an article on ESPN about Russell Wilson saying if Seattle didn't draft him that Indianapolis Washington and Philadelphia planned on drafting him for a backup.

So third round for a starter... not a bad move by Seattle.

I know we have a lot of needs this draft... LB, S. WR. NT. But would you spend a 4th on a back up QB? 3rd?

I say we trade a few picks for a first rounder next year and get Johnny Football!!! Haha. JK

Thing with Wilson is that many teams thought he had 1st round talent, but his height scared many teams away. So a QB desperate team spending a 3rd round pick on him was a good move.

As for us....its all about value. 4th would likely be the absolute earliest Id draft a QB unless the value in the 3rd round was crazy....and I mean really crazy. 4th round....just depends how the draft fall and what the value is at that point, but I wouldnt going in with any sure plans to draft a QB that high. Id go in with the mindset that if the value is good enough, we would consider drafting one in the 4th or 5th, but only if we didnt like the value at other positions._________________
